dry my body as I forgot a towel today.

The right thing to do is put it back in the kitchen and watch my colleagues dry their mugs with it, right?

There is no way I'd touch any part of my body with our office tea towel!

You couldn't dry yourself on our office tea towel - it no longer bends, unless you count the caterpillar motion it tries to make as the lights come on.

How sure are you of that fact?

Whoever took it home to clean may have flossed between their bumcheeks with it before bringing it back in.

The right thing to do now is get yourself dressed.

Failing that, walk around as you are and whip people with your new towel like some kind of changing room jock.

I once had a job where the general manager took home the tea towels once a month to clean them. Now I think about it, i'm not sure how that makes me feel.

What's the other option?

Does your office have a washing machine? Or do you just buy a new tea towel every week?

Umm, an external facilities management company who come at lunchtime and again in the evening?

DD - following a recent spree of bike crashes I have a large selection of soiled bandages too.

If you want to get technical, I suspect it is the same way it gets on peanuts served in a bowl at a bar :(.

Are they staffed by 14-year old boys?

Right so an "external facilities management company" employs someone to... err... take the tea towels home and wash them?

That's completely different ๐Ÿ˜†

I guess it can happen easily enough when you're wiping down your sweaty crack with it, specially if you maybe push it in a little too far. Just a thought.

My local pub is great- award winning proper ale etc etc.
However there's no way I am touching the towel on the radiator in the bogs.

So people are actually more disgusting than I actually thought... and I knew they were pretty disgusting.
I'm upset now.

It was probably earlier used to wipe the seat.

This finally explains how they got those towels in the 80s washing powder adverts: "Blood, sweat, gravy and egg."

OP reported to the RSPB.

It may be the most common owl in Britain but it's still deserving of our protection.

Or do you just buy a new tea towel every week?

Genuine question. Do you really make a tea towel last a week?

A big drawer full of lovely clean tea towels, delivered by a company that also take away the dirty ones in the basket, and wash them.

(Ps, one tea towel a week! You also work in a tinpot hellhole ๐Ÿ˜† )

In the house? Yeah easily. But then 99% of the washing and drying gets done in the dishwasher and the stuff washed in the sink is usually just left to drip dry.

In the office, we have disposable paper towels, but again it all gets done in a dishwasher anyway.

I knew someone who once went in to work early and found the cleaner washing her cloths in the water boiler for the tea.

At least the cloths would be clean though Peter!

I laughed at work once (just the once mind) when prison staff on B wing threatened to withdraw the microwave that prisoners were using cos it wasn't being cleaned as no-one took responsibility. I happened to see the state of the microwave in the staff room & nearly puked!
'Health hazard' wasn't the phrase.
